Hi,

I followed the steps which are provided by you. Add path to the DOCBOOK_SVN
(used:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables). And checked
using "echo" command.

Open using "gedit ~/.bashrc" and add ". /home/gihan/docbk.sh" into the
bashrc file and saved it.

Then follow the steps in README.BUILD
*-----------------------------------------------------------------*
*Part 1: Build and test the stylesheets*
*-----------------------------------------------------------------*
*      1.makeall*

I got same error msg again as below;

gihan@gihan-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$ rm -f DOCBOOK-BUILD.LOG
gihan@gihan-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$ . ~/docbk.sh
gihan@gihan-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$
$DOCBOOK_SVN/buildtools/build-clean
svn: warning: '.' is not a working copy
svn: warning: '.' is not a working copy
gihan@gihan-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$ echo $DOCBOOK_SVN
/home/gihan/subversion/docbook/trunk

build-clean file already exist in current location. But what is it mean by '.'
is not a working copy

Thank you in Advance !

Regards,
--Gihan
